Overview

About Walden

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Walden is a detached house in Shrewsbury (SY2 5DP). It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 63), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One historical planning record sits against the property in 2019. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Across 2001–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £567,000 is 36.6% above the 2015 sale price.
